It may be autumn already but cooking summer vegetables is still going on. Basically most of them are at their best now in September having received the warmth of the last days of August. Zucchinis are still tender and sweet. We’ve sliced some and we’ve baked them with some special Greek cheeses. A perfect early autumn dish!

It’s the ideal time of the year- somewhere between summer and autumn- to indulge into a salad with a favorite legume. Lentils are perhaps the best legumes we can use in a salad and they match perfectly with feta cheese. Add some herbs and abundant lemon juice and you’ve got the most wonderful lunch!

These little, golden cheese pies that we’ve got for you today are the perfect appetizer…or snack. Made with philo pastry, they’re perfectly crispy on the outside, whereas on the inside hides a delicious creamy filling, slightly tangy and salty thanks to the feta cheese which is the key ingredient.

We’ve posted a lot of Greek pies on this blog, all of them wonderful, scrumptious and ideal as comfort food. But the one we’ve got for you today is the one that you’ve been waiting for! (And wondering why it took us so long to post it!)

And even if autumn is to end in a few days, pumpkins are still the season’s favorite ingredient. Combine them with feta cheese and you get one of the finest Greek savory pies!
